Wall outlet bad? Charger not turned on/plugged in right? Something disconnected? Bad battery connection? Blown fuse in chair or charger? Bad battery or batteries?

SOURCE: Jet 3 Ultra won't charge

You can find the Fuse behind the foot rest. Take the pin located under the foot rest, and the casing will come off exposing the fuse.

SOURCE: Jet 3 Ultra, batteries 1 yr old, charge voltage

Mark Batteries your charger is putting our enuf 13.15 volts for each battery so after charging all night you should be reading about 13 volts on each. If your batts are only 12 volts after all night charge then batteries are weak Hope this helps

Testimonial: "Thanks very much! I wa not sure if the charger was outputting enough voltage to charge the batts, You have confirmed that the batts need replacement"

You'll have to get to the battery terminals while they're charging, and then you can measure the charger voltage, if any (around 12 v).
It sounds like your charger is bad, and you can order one from this site:

What makes the on board charger not work an how cah it be tested to see if it is good.

There is a fuse in the charger and another in the chair for the charging circuit. Poor connections to the controller and at the batteries will do it too. If the batteries have been completely discharged, then the onboard charger does not have enough power to start recharging them. If that is the case, use an automotive 12 volt charger that has no automatic charging circuits in it to charge them individually. That means removing both batteries from the chair and connect the charger to one battery at a time. You can test the charger with the batteries disconnected and measuring the voltage on the wires you just took off the batteries. The voltage should be 28 volts or so if the charger is working.

Charges but only holds a charge for about 1/2 hr running time. the manual i have says it has a external charger but mine is onboard. thanks ---- wayne

Wayne if you are getting a full charge and then only getting that little running time its time to replace the batteries. If Medicare paid for your chair then they will pay for most of the repair costs.. Contact the provider where you got your chair to ask about new batteries or you can get them yourself for about $200.00+ for both. You will need to get 2 U1 deep cycle batteries. Do not get unsealed or auto batteries for your chair get U1s Hope this helps

Chair dont take a charge

Get new batteries If your batteries are 2-3 years old its time for new ones. You can check the output of the charger by using a digital voltmeter Set the meter to 200 vdc and plug it into the two outter holes of the charger port with the charger plugged in you should read 27-30 volts. and with the charger unpluged you can aslo read the voltage of your batteries. fully charged they should read 25 -27 volts. If when charging you don't read 27-30 volts then the charger isn't working and you can get an offboard charger cheaper than the onboard just charge thru the charger port on the joystick. Hope this helps

Flashing red light batt. fully charged

Flashing red light usually means low batteries. Check the batteries after charging all night with a volt meter through the charger port you should read 26-24 volts dc. If you get a lower reading and you are sure the charger is working correctly then you will need to replace both batteries Hope this helps
